Tough talk, or terroristic threat?

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton warned Tehran on Tuesday that if she were president, the United States could "totally obliterate" Iran in retaliation for a nuclear strike against Israel.

Or simply another instance of her saying anything to get elected? :shrug:

[TwoDogs]

I think Loki is right. Hilary will say ANYTHING to get elected.

[JKTODD]

DANG-Hillary just got my vote----oh wait, she's a liar. So I won't vote for her.

[Gags]

F@ck, she really thinks we're stupid doesn't she.

She is running the worst campaign ever in my opinion. She should have fired her whole staff.

[Scott@Rockstomper]

Yeah, we could level Iran. Iran knows it. Stating the ability, is just reiterating fact.

Rubbing it in the face of a historically somewhat unstable government, in a historically unstable region, controlled largely by people who distrust the US, is foolish at best.

We don't have the stomach for another Hiroshima, or another Iraq ground war, much less something bigger than both of those combined, so IMO it's an empty threat at best.

I'm curious as to how she figures saying that will help her get elected: those who oppose her won't vote for her because she spat on Iran, those who support her may bail on her if she goes "right-wing warmongering"... so what's the angle?

she had to work really hard to get those words out too. she really showed that she has no clue what to actually do.

Trying to portray herself as being tough on defense??? :shrug:

I figure she'll start crying when she answers the red phone in the middle of thei night.

From the Hillary Dictionary:


totally obliterate: v
1. To propose resolutions condemning certain actions in order to reduce the self esteem of the target, thus inflicting self-doubt in future generations to bring about their eventual downfall.
2. Release multiple statements to the press regarding the target and their lack of global responsibility.
3. Bring target under the control of a federal bureaucracy.

Well Hillary won the PA Primary by 10% so the Dems have a problem which is a good thing! Yeah, she'll say anything, truthfull or not to get elected, but so will most other politicians. Its just a little more clear that she obviously lies and "misspeaks" so often.

its absolutly scary to me that there would be anyone that would vote for her though

[Gags]

Everytime Hillary opens her mouth it is extremely painful to me. I just can't bring myself to look past it as everything she does irritates the sh!t out of me.

I am with you on that one gags
